4.5.3 Guidelines for disk space requirements for operation log backup folder

The following table shows the guidelines for disk space requirements for storing operation logs for one year in the backup folder.

Note: One year is calculated as 240 days (20 business days per month).

#1: If you are collecting operation logs for the Citrix XenApp and Microsoft RDS server, assume that one computer equals the portion of virtual environment dedicated to one Citrix XenApp and Microsoft RDS user.

#2: The number enclosed in parentheses represents an approximate size when 2,000 HIBUN logs are imported per day. When acquiring HIBUN logs, add the number enclosed in parentheses. It depends on the types of HIBUN logs to be imported and your environment. Therefore, operate the logs for about one week or one month before determining the required disk space.

#3: The disk space required when the operation date and time of the source agent (local time, UTC time, and time zone) are output. Set the OpLog_ExportSourceDateAndTime property in the configuration file (jdn_manager_config.conf) to ON. For details about the OpLog_ExportSourceDateAndTime property, see A.5 Lists of properties.

The following formulas are used to calculate the disk capacity required for backing up operation logs.

Operation log data:

Number of devices x 69.9(KB) / 1024 / 1024 x Number of days

CSV files output by periodic export:

Number of devices x 659.2(KB) / 1024 / 1024 x Number of days
